“I’m PISSED,” Laura Ingraham’s response to Herschel Walker’s defeat to Democrat Raphael Warnock subjects her to mockery

Laura Ingraham was not pleased with the results of the Georgia elections.
The elections in the key state of Georgia concluded, and the results are out. Former NFL RB Herschel Walker has lost to Democrat Raphael Warnock. This victory gives Warnock his first full-term seat, along with a majority in Parliament. He had the upper hand, as over 40,000 votes were in his favor.
Laura Ingraham is known to be rather conservative in nature and she was not happy over how the Georgia elections went down. She expressed her dissent on national television and had this to say, “I am pissed tonight. I’d like to say this was surprising, but it’s not. The Senate Democrats, I would argue, did a much better job. We felt this coming. To me, it never felt like the Senate Republicans wanted this guy in office.”
She was referring to Herschel Walker, who is a rather controversial figure, and while running for elections, the hidden skeletons from his closet began to resurface. While these things did not help him, he did have the unfettered support of former President Donald J. Trump. Walker was personally chosen by Trump.
Ingraham believes the only reason Walker had so much momentum riding on him was due to the former POTUS’ belief in him. “He was a Trump pick, and they didn’t like that… There wasn’t the intensity on the part of the Republicans as there was on the part of the Democrats. I felt it, and you felt it.”

Herschel Walker has been called out on numerous occasions for his hypocrisy:
Ingraham goes on to add, “We don’t change anything! We have the same people in place in leadership. The same people in place, apparently at the RNC, perhaps that’s not changing. We are doing the same thing over and over again. I’m pissed tonight, frankly!”
“What did we say? This was winnable…are we just going to keep doing the same thing all over again every single election?” she was quoted as saying by the DailyBeast. Herschel Walker is a rather controversial personality. In the past, the former NFL star has been accused of threatening and violently behaving toward romantic partners.
Walker has been known to make far-fetched claims regarding his entrepreneurial career. However, the biggest issue surrounding him has been his stance on abortion. Publicly, Walker has taken a pro-life stance and has stood by his statement of banning abortions and making them illegal to have under any circumstances.
But here is where the hypocrisy begins to reflect as not just one woman but two of them come forward following his statements and confess that Herschel Walker had paid for them to get an abortion in 2009 and 1993, respectively. The candidate has denied all their claims. Owing to the controversies around him and Trump’s endorsement of him, Herschel Walker’s public stock took a nosedive and as a result, he lost the Georgia elections.
